The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Derbyshire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being aware of how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And of course take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.
